1. What are your Qualifications for Office? (50 word limit)

Answer from Larry Willis:

I've worked hard all my life to pay for my education and raise a family. For middle class Missourians like me that's getting harder every year. I understand the problems facing the working families in my district and possess the common sense necessary to work for a better way.

2. What plans do you have to address your top three priorities? (50 word limit)

Answer from Larry Willis:

First I would work to restore the Blunt Medicaid cuts. Second I would make sure that only the most necessary corporate tax credits were kept and I would stop any new "special favors" legislation like the Jetton Village Law.
